Trump did not win the popular vote, however he did win the electoral vote that is why he won the election. Trump’s campaign was not at all common or ethical for most people. Mr Trump ran the most unconventional of political campaigns, but it turned out he knew better than all the experts. (BBC) Trump had spent a lot of money on merchandise for his campaign and while other candidates were focusing on door-to-door campaigns and get-out-the-vote operations Trump focused […]
In the United States, Donald Trump assumed the office with a vision of changing the current Washington, and “Making America Great Again.” Clearly, Trump took office with a different style of leadership from Obama. His platform discussed fairer trade agreements, less external interference, and sturdier borders. In addition, he viewed globalization as a system that is hurting the American citizen and emphasizes most of his attention to politics and economic revitalization. For example, once trump took office, virtually instantly abandon […]

Get help with your assignmentPresident Donald Trump has promised to build a wall along the borders. But no matter how big or wide this mighty wall he has been wanting to create is, there will be problems that follow. Many undocumented workers and Narcotics might find their way across any border barrier though the border patrol ends up missing these regardless. As this wall might just become irrelevant to those of whom become unaccounted for because of immigration they may be overstaying their visas, […]
It is not our differences that divide us. It is our inability to recognize, accept, and celebrate those differences.i This quote from Audre Lorde was from a series of poems written in 1994 entitled Our Dead Behind Us. This quote could be used to describe most African Americans’ mindset a few decades ago when the Civil Rights movement was the most prominent battle going on in the United States. Even today, about 50 years later, those words ring true about […]

INTRODUCTION I. GAIN ATTENTION: What makes America great? Is it our ideals of freedom, equality, and self-government? Is it our fast-evolving technology or military? Or is it in the foundational principles we teach our children in school and at home? Our values, beliefs, or cultural diversity and the openly encouraged ideas of individualism and self-expression? Is America actually great? Were we ever truly? II. SPEECH THESIS: President Donald Trump’s view of immigration is not synonymous to the foundations of America, […]
Rosa Parks Violence was brought against many peaceful black protesters upset Americans. Many people got injured and killed protesting for the bus boycott. After a long day at work Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat to a white man on a segregated bus in December 1, 1955. She then was escorted out of the bus by a police officer and then arrested. Rosa Parks worked as a seamstress. She went on the Cleveland Avenue bus for home. She […]
The Mother of the Civil Rights Movement Rosa Parks is one of the most famous people in the history of the American Civil Rights movement, for her refusal to move to the back of the bus, on December 1, 1955. Although her moment of protest was not a planned event, it certainly proved to be a momentous one. The nature of Rosa Park’s protest, the response of the authorities of Montgomery, the tactics adopted by the civil rights leaders in […]
In 1958, Jimmy Wilson would be the center of international attention. After he was sentenced to death in Alabama for stealing less than two dollars in change, Wilson’s case was thought to encapsulate the harsh consequences of Americans racism. This in turn brought to the surface international anxiety about the Americans race relations. Because United States was the leader of the free world, racism in the country would be an international concern. Racism has been the talk since before the […]
One of the most significant elements of the civil right movement is the voting rights act of 1965. This was another act that particularly southern leaders like Martin Luther King, John Lewis (who was beaten pretty badly when marching to Selma) pushing for voting and equality was not included in the Civil Rights Act like equal opportunities in terms of voting, but they do get that pass in 1965 and one of the important clauses in that voting right act […]
Gunshots ricocheted off the cold brick walls of the school hallway. Screams were followed by thumps, a sure sign another life had been lost. Cowering behind the podium, Ryan watched the doorknob shake with ferocity, fear settling with an icy feeling in his gut. The door finally gave way, the intruder bursting into the room. Their gun spit smoke into the air, metal getting its first taste of iron, calcium, iron, and brick, in that order, leaving a family with […]
Violence, in any context, is dreaded. It is more dreaded when it is a prolonged one and there is no sign of it coming to an end in the future. This has been and still is the case for gun violence in America. Any violence that is caused by guns or that involves the use of guns is regarded as gun violence. In America, this is very popular for a number of reasons. First, the guns are readily available so […]
Arguably, one of the most talked about amendments and overall policy legislation pieces of modern-day politics. Now, more than ever, the testing and judgement of the Right to Bear Arms has placed the American people at opposing ends. As the amendment is written, A well-regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed (United States Const., amendment II), the interpretation of the amendment has […]
In the United States Constitution, our second amendment stated that “A well-regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.” Regarding this paper, I will be speaking out about gun control and the second amendment and how society can further enforce gun control while abiding by the constitution to remain a ‘free state’. Many people believe in the right to practice The United States […]
The Second Amendment was added to the Constitution with its ratification of the Bill of Rights 1791. It states: A well-regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed. **At this time, our founding fathers were setting up the United States and creating our Constitution. In the United States there were two major groups of power: Federalists and Anti-Federalists. The Federalists aspired to have […]
The right to bear arms isn’t necessarily a grizzly bear with an AR-15. The right to bear arms is defined in the second amendment which states “A well-regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.” Throughout the years, especially in modern time the rights defined in the second amendment have been debated thoroughly. Some feel that they require revisions to suit modern society […]
Guns are a part of everyday life in America to an extent that many people outside the United States find hard to understand. According to the Pew Research Center, estimates of the number of guns in the United States range up to 310 million”which represents about one firearm for each person in the country (Allen 1-80). Gun regulation should be higher and background checks should be more in depth. Having a gun could be for multiple reason but shouldn’t be […]
Gun Control: Gun violence and awareness On Dec. 15, 1791, ten amendments to the U.S. Constitution eventually known as the Bill of Rights were ratified. The second of them said: A well-regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed. (1) Gun control is as old as old west (4). Laws regulating ownership and carry of firearms apart from the U.S. Constitution’s Second Amendment […]

While gun laws have changed repeatedly throughout the years, the safety of the United States citizens has continued to be in danger ever since guns have been allowed in the United States, in 1619. When we take a step back and look at the history of gun control, it began with the Second Amendment. The Second Amendment provides U.S. citizens the right to bear arms. Ratified in December 1791, the amendment says: A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the […]
My name is Lane Kidd, and I was born January 19, 1978, in Shreveport, Louisiana. I have two sisters, which are 11 months apart, and 7-8 years older than myself. I am the youngest. For those whom I would say know me personally, or at work, would probably say I am an average guy who works hard and because of some of my life’s experiences, perceive that I play hard. Truth is, I don’t play enough. There is always something […]
Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) are a set of health insurance and industry reforms that aim to expand access to health insurance and change the way the federal government pays doctors. The expansion of people with insurance can be attributed to three main provisions in the law – The expansion of Medicaid, the creation of insurance exchanges and the individual mandate (Kliff, 2017). While Obamacare relies on insurance companies and federal government, single – payer healthcare relies on […]
The foundation of America is made up of immigrants and most people would say that immigrants have robbed many citizens of jobs and do not pay taxes due to this. The United States has always been known to be the home of the free and of big dreams. America is known to give hope for many who want to come to this country for prosperity and a fresh start, for themselves and their families from all over the world. The […]
DREAMers and MS-13 are two completely different groups of people, yet they are grouped together through one huge controversy: illegal immigration. According to the Cambridge Dictionary, “[an] illegal immigrant [is] someone who lives or works in another country when they do not have the legal right to do this.” There are countless questions and issues that arise from discussing illegal immigration, but one of the biggest issues right now in this country is whether illegal immigrants should receive government benefits […]
Nowadays this is a situation that has become very common in several countries with High Human Development Index: Illegal Immigration. It refers to ‘the migration of people into a country in ways that violate the immigration laws of that country, or the remaining in a country of people who no longer have the legal right to remain ‘(Wikipedia). Over many years to this date many are the constraints that countries such as England, France, the United States, Germany, Canada, and […]
The issue of illegal immigration has been a headache for the US government for a long time. In 2014, there were about 12 million illegal immigrants in the US, and the figure includes immigrants who had extended their stay, without filing for the necessary legal documents to make their stay legal (Ngai 56). The Obama administration tried to make things right for illegal immigrants, but the Trump administration is committed to overturning most of the benefits that illegal immigrants get […]
When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best. They’re not sending you. They’re not sending you. They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.” This quote is from current President Donald Trump’s announcement for his presidency on June 16, 2015. Illegal immigration is a heated debate within U.S. politics and political parties. During this current political […]
Deep in the heart of Texas, we find a melting pot of all different ethnicities. The United States of America is also a mixture with historical influence from many different countries as well as immigrants that help make this country great. However, it is when the balance of law-abiding citizens gets thrown out of whack by individuals entering the country illegally that we begin to experience issues. The rapidly growing Latino population within Texas is threatening to dramatically influence politics […]
The United States of America is a country which only shares international borders with only two countries; Canada on the northern side and Mexico on the southern part. The presence of these two countries so close to the United States has meant that there is migration of people from one of the three countries to another. Some of these individuals crossing borders are not citizens of any of the three countries. The process of immigration into the United States is […]
George W. Bush was the 43rd president of the United States, taking the reins of a nation at a time where the strength and foundation of America would be tested in a way never before experienced. Even prior to this, he had spent time in the political world. Philosophy editor Brian Duignan writes, “[Years before his election as president], Bush spent 18 months in Washington, D.C., working as an advisor and speechwriter in his father’s presidential campaign…[He] was a businessman […]
